While the Lions were perhaps a perfect foil to what the Cardinals like to do offensively, the Commanders are not. They are bottom three in the league in yards per pass play (7.7) and yards per rush (5.1). That means the Cardinals should be able to more or less do anything they want offensively.
How the Cardinals do defensively is the question. Washington runs the ball well and Jayden Daniels looks fantastic. So I see this game being a track meet, but I also can see it going like the game the Cardinals had against the Rams. I won’t predict a Cardinals blowout win but think it could happen. Instead, it will be an exciting high-scoring game.

To me, this is a coin flip game. I really believe he either team could win. But I do think it’s close. I just don’t think Washington’s defense can stop Murray, who will have a huge day throwing and running, barely outpacing Daniels. Also, the Commanders short week into a West Coast trip doesn’t help them either. Cardinals win a fun, close game.
